My second attempt at a layered sculpted box

This is attempt #2 at a layered and sculpted box. My first one was also pakauk and maple and I had several thin boards remaining from the resawing since installing my riser block on the bandsaw….you gotta play with and experiment with the new toys..! The first had the padauk on the outer layer and this one has the maple on the outer layer. I really have been having fun with the laminating press I put together….it opens up a whole new creative avenue.Sculpting in itself is a challenge…but trying to get the second layer looking like more than just blotches showing through took alot of trial and error.I incorporated the new lift design that I have been using lately. The bottom is lined with a bright red leather.12×8x4 3/4” with a lacquer finish.

-- Each step of every Wood Art project I design and build is considered my masterpiece… because I want the finished product to reflect the quality and creativeness of my work

Greg, your boxland name and your work keep evolving. Of course this is stunning, but this new layered venture will evolve into something even more beautiful as you study and vary the technique. It sure is fun watching to see what you will do next. Keep boxing and keep posting.
